Previous Tenant's reviews of the property;
"A fantastic family home in the countryside with a beautiful garden. A wonderfully spacious property, with a beautiful open fire and character features throughout. 6 good sized bedrooms. A lovely friendly neighbourhood, great if you've got children."
''We lived in Halls Cottage for 12 months when we were new to the area. Halls was a fantastic let for our family of four. The location is perfect as the house has countryside views but with friendly neighbours and village community. The house benefits from substantial accommodation so we were often able to welcome friends and family and celebrated a memorable Christmas in the dining and living rooms around the open fire. The house is a short walk to the bus stop to both local primary and secondary schools. Our Landlords welcomed us and encouraged us to join in the Fitzhead fete in our first month enabling us to quickly feel part of the community. We really enjoyed our stay at Halls and ended up buying a property in a village nearby''
